Abstract: A sporting footwear and system for enhancing a force transfer is described. The footwear enhances the force transfer from a foot of the wearer of the footwear, to a playing surface on which the footwear is being used. The footwear has a shell which receives and encloses the foot. The shell has a heel portion, and opposite sole and upper portions. The footwear also has a force-transferring member. The member has a first surface which can be attached to the inside of the upper portion, and an opposed second surface which can abut against the top of the wearer's foot when it is inserted into the shell. When the member abuts against the top of the foot, it fills a void and enables an increased operative contact surface within the footwear. This allows for enhanced force transfer between the foot and the shell of the footwear, and ultimately, the playing surface.

Abstract: A sporting garment for removably receiving one or more articles of clothing, such as a sock, is described. The garment has leg portions for covering at least in part the legs of a person wearing the garment. Each leg portion has a central division extending along a length of each leg portion, and corresponds to a front portion and a rear portion of the legs of the person, thereby dividing each leg portion into lateral sides. The garment also has an attachment member mounted on at least one of the lateral sides of at least one leg portion, the attachment member being positioned, shaped, and sized for removably receiving the at least one article of clothing on said leg portion of the garment. Also described are corresponding garment kits, a sock and an attachment member.
